Real estate agent or mortgage loan officer?

This is a feild that really appeals to me. I have always be interested. I know it's hard to start out...I have tried and give up once because of the costs....I was going in debt...lol. But, I want to try again. Any tips? What are some appropriate companies to work for? Any of you make any money within the first couple months? Also, after you work for a while is it possible to work at home...or at most minuscule part time at home? I am going to have a babe in the near adjectives?

Also, is it better to start off working for a builer rather a concrete estate company?
Answers:
authentic estate agent you need to be a go getter,it doesn't come to you.and you discharge out dues depends on your state and then you have to see who would purloin you under there wing so you can work out of there office.you never of late go bam I'm open unless you give somebody a lift over an office from some one else and you need experiance from the dated timers. if you only make a comission of 6 percent,deliberate about that one.you need to vend a house for 100k oat least to make almost 6k and afterwards the real estate office get there cut for over head and adjectives and then you'll pay taxes on it,etc. so if you have a sneaking suspicion that just sitting at home and it'll work for you,good luck. we own the money to persure it and we find it hard to get listings and market and foreclosures,alot of footwork and alot of the peole are just looking and your never hear from them again
don't know alot about mortgage brokers.
but the other answer of 20k a month? I would request for information that one. but i could be wrong.
Get into mortgage lend now while everyone else is bailing out. You can make it. It is the most fun craft you can choose. If you apply at a big bank, they will probably put you in the "loan modification" department since i.e. where they are desperate for help..
I held off on real estate until my children be older because I did not have someone to drop the children sour with at a moments notice.,(I be a legal secretary & title company closer, which provided me a structured schedule that worked beside small kids), and if you are working hard enough to take that phone to ring, there will be those "moments notice." Strong buyers know they are few & far between and expect to be treated appropriately. Both professions involve a lot of self marketing & Know how. As the previous poster mentioned its go/go/go. You must enjoy associates & resolving issues. YOU are the one that has to decide what you want to do, hold it from there. The plus with a small kid, he will sleep a lot so you have time to bring online classes & learn as much as you can. As to the companies, Interview them, decide where on earth you feel comfortable, don't just run to the first one, but do look around and find your fit. I enjoy met quite a few people who worked for builders and exclaimed how unforced it was to get buyers, surrounded by most states that is not the case any longer and they are mortal let go, single a select few remaining. With a real estate company you will get as much experience as you want, I need you the best and enjoy the baby..
